| - We have just returned from our "Start Summer Vacation" LOL and I must say I was very worried by all the negative reviews but went anyways and so glad I did!
First, we go to Vegas a few times a year but never with the kids, 13-12-16-17 yes I have! LOL Anyways.... I wanted a hotel that was off the strip and family friendly without a casino, kids have bad allergies and casinos are all bad for that. So I found a groupon for a 2 bedroom villa for $345 for 3 nights 4 days. I thought that was an awesome deal!
Arrived on Monday, early and requested to check in early, the gentleman at the counter was very nice and said that wasn't an issue and got us our room early. After check in your escorted to another counter (timeshare) there was a gentleman there asking us to go the presentation and I said no, if we did it would be on the last day and thats not likely. He didnt pressure us, said heres your free kids dinner and drink passes and we were on our way.
Upon checking into our room, 2232, 2nd floor room. It smelt like curry, possible and indian guest was there before us. Room was clean, had everything you need, cooking stuff, plates, coffee maker, everything! We settled in and walked across the street to the grocery store and stocked up! Loved the fact that there was a full kitchen! Awesome! Beds were okay, kinda stiff but not bad. Cable in the rooms and free wifi for 4 phones! All worked well and we had no issues. the rooms are outdated and could use some better upkeep but it did the job for us.
We spent our days at the pool which was AWESOME kids loved it! The slides were a big hit! They have a gift store which I found to be reasonable priced. Beer there is so much cheaper then going into the bar, so my tip is buy beer at the gift store! Plenty of sitting for the pool area which was great. I wish they had servers though, if you do want a drink you have to go to the bar. The restaurant was ok-good and I didn't think pricing was extreme at all. I will say though, one day they had offered a coconut drink, when I ordered it, the girl couldn't open the coconuts to make the drink so she just said sorry we can't make them.... well don't offer them if you can make it LOL or go ask for help! They also have buy one drink get the second free and happy hour times, however its only on there very basic drinks..... also another tip we learned at the end, for the kids sodas, have them save there cups because refills are free! I didn't no and no one told us so I kept buying them each time! UGH I guess I should have asked, I found out on our last day to just save the cups.
At night, we went to the strip at night and Fremont street, we took Lyft which was anywhere from $23-35 bucks each way... it was little much but we wanted off the strip so thats what you get LOL I guess the resort use to have a shuttle, I think that would have been awesome if they bring that back!
Upon check out, it was easy and there was no extra charges or anything. I would come back here again if I was bringing kids or family with elderly people because it is very low key and relaxed. We enjoyed our selfs very much!
